GAVE HER NUB8B f 5,000.
Heirs Now Trying to Revoke the
Donation,
Arguments were made yesterday be
fore Judge II. AV. Arcltbuld in United
Stales court, on a rule for a preliminary
Injunction In the ease of Mrs. Mary K.
Bishop nnd others, of Cincinnati, O.,
itgalnst Miss Lttella York, of AVIIllums
port. ' '
The plaintiffs are heirs of Mrs. Kllzn
beth 1. Patterson, who died three years
ago In Cincinnati. The defendant Is a
professional nurse, who cared for Mrs.
Patterson In her last Illness and also
for Mrs. Patterson's husband, who pre
ceded her In death only n few months.
A few dnys before her death, Mrs.
Patteison gnvo the nurso JS.OOO In
bonds. The heirs aro seeking to compel
her to turn the bonds over to the, es
tate, alleging that at the time the bonds
weie given the' nurse, the donor was In
such feeble condition of mind and body
that she was not legally capable f dis
posing of her property.
Miss York alleges that she nursed the
Pattersons for a long period of tlmo for
only a nominal compensation, with the
understanding that they would reim
burse her In n manner, as they put It
themselves, "that would make her In
dependent of her profession."
Tlio Injunction asked for yesterday
was to enjoin Miss York from disposing
of the bonds until the case Is finally ad
justed by a jury triul. Judge Archbald
granted the Injunction, but made a pro
vision entitling Miss York to use the
coinings of the bonds pending the suit.
Ex-Judge 13. X. Willard represents
the plaintiffs, and J. A. Beemer, of
Wllllamsporl, the defendant.
CLOSE OF INSTITUTE.
Resolutions Adopted by Teachers
Reiterate Their Demand for an
Increase in Salaries.
The Inst spring institute to be held
for. the public school teachers of this
city was brought to a close yesterday
morning with addresses by several of
the Instructors who were not heard
earlier In the week.
Miss Gould, of New York city, the
Glbsonesque young woman, who was so
popular with the teachers at the insti
tute conducted two years ago, gave a
talk on "Posing," In which she illus
trated the best methods of posing chil
dren as models for the drawing classes
to work from.
Alexander Foibes, of Philadelphia,
gave a talk on "Reading," and Dr.
Gieen gave an inspiring address on 'A
Recipe for Beauty." He followed out
the general line of thought contained In
a quotation from Goethe, who said:
"Would you make life beautiful; see
every, day a beautiful picture, hear
beautiful music and rend some beauti
ful book."
Henry Houck made a biief address,
and then resolutions were presented and
unanimously adopted by the teachers
pi esent.
Teachers' Institutes will hereafter bo
conducted In September, just before the
opening of the .schools.
SUSPECTS FOUL PLAY.
Letter Received from Relative of Girl
Who Took Poison Last Saturday.
Superintendent of Police Day received
a letter from a relative of the young
woman who committed suicide in the
Blgelow on Mulberry street, last Sat
urday, asking for full nnd complete
details of the ciicumslances in the
case.
The person writing the letter evi
dently believed that the girl had met
with foul play and that Martin, the
man who was heie with her, had some
connection with her death. The let
ter convoys the information that the
dead girl's home was in Spencer,
Mass., and that her real name was
Mary Brewer, and not Mary Mar
tin or Mary Melbourne, the two
names given by Martin after she had
committed suicide. It also states that
Martin, who left this city with the
body, did not go homo with It.
The police maintain that there was
no evidence of foul play In the case.
The girl mailed two letters shortly be
fore she took the poison, and one of
these, was received by her mother, ac
cording to the letter received yesterday.
In In she announced that she wns
about to end her life. They say that
Martin was not near the house when
she did take the poison and did not
put lit an appearance until some tlmo
later.
THERE WILL BE BIDDERS.
At Least Two Hen Would Like to
Clean City's Streets.
It in understood that the city will
have no trouble in getting Its paved
streets cleaned this year by private
contract at the same cost as lust year,
$1,500, providing tlio resolution decid
ing upon this method of having tho
work done passes common council on
Monday morning before re-orgunlza-tlon.
U was learned yesterday that at
least two persons are only awaiting the
passage or the resolution before sub
mitting bids tor the cleaning of the
streets ut a figure not higher than $13,
000 and perhaps a llttlo lower.

Tho training of, a sound body Is con

ORGANIZATION
OF COUNCILS
IT WILL BE EFFECTED NEXT
. MONDAY MORNING.
Recorder's Message Will Be Read
and Martin T. Lavelle Will Be
Elected City Clerk These Are the
Only Certainties, Though J. J. Mc
Andrew nnd E. E. Robathan Will
Probably Be Elected Chairmen of
Select and Common Councils, Re
spectivelyMany New Faces.
Monday morning next, at 10 o'clock,
both branches of the city councils will
reorganize for the coming year, and
after reorganization will meet In joint
scsbIoii and listen to tlio reading of Re
corder AV. L. Connell's llrst annual
message. Then tho election of a city
cleric for the term of two years will be
conducted.
About the only thing that's definitely
and positively assured about the reor
ganization Is that Martin T. Lavelle,.
the veteran city clerk, will bo re-elected
to that ofllce unanimously. There was
.Tons- vox in:it(ii:x,
Succ red Wude M. 1'iim as Select Couiicilnnn
fiuin Second Wind.
a little talk of opposition to hint a few
months ago, but It has simmered away,
and the situation ns regards his elec
tion is as calm and serene as a day In
June.
John J. McAndrew, tho choice of the
Democratic caucus, for chairman ot
select council, will in all probability be
elected, but some "of the Republicans
still maintain that they are going to
win over a Democrat to support their
man, who will probably be Joseph Oli
ver, of tho Fifteenth ward, if he be
lieves he's got a fighting chnnce to win
out.
SITUATION IN COMMON.
Tho common council situation re
mains very much the same as it did on
Thursday. Messrs. Keller, Taine, Part
ridge and Harvey, the four Republicans
who remained away from the Repub
lican caucus and who have not yet
pledged their support to E. E, Roba
than, its candidate, hold the bidnnco of
power and control the situation. If they
throw their support to the Democrats,
the Democrats enn elect P. F. Calpln as
chairman. If they decide "to support
Mr. Robathan, that gentleman can be
elected.
"The thing Is up to Robathan," said a
councilman yesterday. "If he and the
Republicans will agree to pass the ap
propriation ordinance on Monday morn
ing without the item for a salary for a
separate clerk and will agree also to
elect Assslstunt City Clerk Morris ns
clerk of tho common council, then lie
can be elected chairman. If he does not
agree to this and the Democrats do,
then P. F. Calpln will be elected chair
man." It is extremely probable that Mr,
Robathan will agree to the proposition
of the four members above referred to
and that he will be tho next chairman,
with Evan R. Mutrls ns clerk. This Is,
of course, providing that the Democrats
and Republicans stick together. The
deflection of any four from either side
would mean success to the other side,
without rognrd to which party Messrs.
Paine, Partridge, Keller and Harvey
join hands with.
MANY NEW FACES.
There will be many new faces in both
councils this year, though tho propor
tion will be much greater In select
council than In common. One of the
men who will be no longer seen in select
council, and who has been for years one
of the best known llgures In and around
city hall, Is AVade M. Finn, who has
represented tho Second ward In the se
lect branch for tho past eight years,
and who served two terms us common
councilman prior to this, He Is suc
ceeded by John A'on Bergen, one of the
best known citizens of North Scranton,
Another man who has served long und
well In the select council nnd who re.
tires on Monday, Is Charles F. AVaguer,
for eight years tlio member from tho
Tenth ward. Ho will bo succeeded by
John Nngeli, who has been the com
mon councilman fiom this wnrd for
four years past. Attorney John P.
Qulnnan will succeed John Slira as se
lect councilman front tho Twelfth wurd,
und E. J, Coleman, the present common
councilman ft out the Sixteenth, will
succeed Adam Sehtoeder as select coun
cilman, Mr. Colemuu's election was what gave
the Democrats control of the select
branch. Ho Is a Democrat, and Mr.
Schrocdor, who relit es, is a Republican.
The only other new face in tho select
council will be Malachl F, Coyne, who
succeeds AV. G. O'Malloy ns the member
from the Twentieth ward,
COMMON COUNCIL.
Joseph F. Evans and H. S. Alworth,
of the Second ward, whoso brief terms
In the common council have been vcty
acceptably filled, will be succeeded by
David Evans and John J, Henry, John
Nagell, who goes Into the select coun
cil, will bo succeeded by AVIIIIum II.
Knoepfel us common councilman fiom
the Tenth ward,
Theodore S. Fuller, Republican, suc
ceeds 15. J, Coleman, Democrat, us
member from the Sixteenth wntd.
AVilllam Rush will bo succeeded as
common councilman Horn tlio Eigh
teenth ward by John F. McHule, Mr.
Rush Is Just at pt esent contesting In
court tho legality of Mr, Mcllalo's citi
zenship. The other new member Is M.
J. Uariett, who succeeds M. J. Connelly
us member from tho Twentieth ward.
The number of ordinances and leso
lutloim to die u peaceful death this
year, because of the failure of councils
to act upon them beforo reorganization,
is, not ns largo us usual, because of the
extra efforts made duilng the last two
or three weeks to clean Up nil old bust
liesn. The majority of the ordinances nnd
resolutions which failed of passage nre
to bo found In tho select council com
mittee boxes. In the box of the license
committee Is to be found the ordinance
providing for tho levy nltd collection ot
u license tnx on grosrf receipts of the
public service companies doing business
In this city. This ordinance wns Intto
dticcd for the purpose of remedying de
fects In the measure signed by Recorder
Connell nnd passed by common coun
cil. This same license committee also
held up tho long ordinance providing
for u license tux on nil kinds of busi
ness not already paying u mercantile
tax.
IJIBD IN COMMITTER
In tho Judiciary committee's box lien
the ordinance declaring speakeasies to
bo disorderly houses und giving the
police the right to raid them and arrest
nil persons found therein. Tho parks
coitimltteefnlled to net on the ordi
nances establishing rules and legultt
tlons for tho city parks and providing
for n night wntchman ut Nay Aug pnilt.
The lire committee failed to report
resolutions providing for three lire
hydrants In tho Twenty-ilrst wnrd, one
In the Fourth wnrd nnd one In the Sec
ond wmd. An ordinance providing for
two lights In the Second ward was held
ill) by the laws and ordinances com
mittee. The ordinance providing for the pav
ing of a portion f Spruce street, be
tween Franklin and Pcnn avenues, was
never acted upon by tho paving com
mittee. The streets nnd btldges com
mittee Ignored the ordinance providing
for sidewalks nnd gutters on Brick ave
nue, between AVcst Market street und
AVilllam street, and tho sewers nnd
drains committee did likewise to an
ordinance providing for a sewer on
Sherwood court, between Mulberry and
A'lne streets.
RAILWAY ORDINANCES.
The only ordinance reported from
committee and left on first and second
reading in select council are those
awarding franchises to the North End,
AVest End and South Side Street Rail
way companies, nnd another providing
for the erection of gates at the- Lacka
wanna railroad's Jackson street cross
ing In tho Keyset' Valley.
Some of tho ordinances which com
mon council failed to act upon wero as
follows: Providing for tho laying of
sidewalks on Parker street; regulating
the presenting and piovlng of claims
against the city; repealing that section
of tho license tax ordinance providing
for a tax on the gross receipts of street
railway companies.
END IS NEAR AT HAND.
Strike Likely to Be Called Off nt
the Meeting to Be Held on

From the best information to be
gathered front tlio various parties im
mediately interested in the settlement
of the street car strike, the strikers will

will be ncccptable to the company.
In a general way the new terms are
that all the men are to bo taken back at

MURPHY WAS
NOT SEATED
POOR BOARD REFUSES TO REC
OGNIZE HIM.
Claimant's Attempt to Secure His
Sent Not Attended with Any En
livening Incidents After the De
mnnd Wns Refused Mr. Murphy
Withdrew with the Purpose of Go
ing Into Court to Have Mr. Dickert
Ousted Relief Stopped on Woman
Who Visited Senshore.
Contrary to expectations there was
nothing of a lively nature attending
the attempt of Attorney John J.
Murphy to have tho poor board yester
day recognize hint as the elected mem
ber fiom the old South ward of Scran
ton. Mr. Murphy simply made formal
demand to be seated und upon his de
mand being refused quietly withdrew.
Mr. Mm pity, nnd M. F. Hundley, who
claims ho was elected front the North
wurd to succeed Mr. Fuller, urtlved nt
the meeting eaily and took seats hi the.
spectators chairs. James A. isvans,
who was returned as elected from Hydo
Park to succeed Dr. AV. A. Palno camo
In when the mooting was half over,
and took a seat apart front Messrs
Murphy and Handlcy.
At tho opening ot the meeting, sec
retary Gillespie announced that he re
ceived a communication from Judge
Edwards conveying notice ot tho re
appointment of Frederick Fuller ot tho
North ward' and Thomas Shotton, of
Providence borough. The communi
cations wero ordered filed and the ap
pointees admitted to seats.
After tho routine business had been
transacted and as the board was about
to adjourn, Mr. Murphy advanced to
the railing enclosing the members, and
asked Chairman Fuller for the privilege
of tho floor. Mr. Fuller usked the
board what it's pleasure was In the
matter and Dr. Paine moved that Mr.
Murphy be heard. The motion was un
animously passed and Mr. Murphy
thereupon renewed tho demand he
made at the last meeting that he be
seated as tho member front the South
ward.
MADE FURTHER DEMAND.
"This being the llrst meeting under
the new term of several of the mem
bets," Mr Murphy said, "I wish to
make fur her demand for my seat as
the men oer from the South ward,
under an election held last February
to fill a vacancy. I have presented my
certificate and subscribed to the oath
of office before the prothonotury. At
the lust meeting which was the final
meeting under the old term, it may
not have been Incumbent on you to
recognize me. At this meeting how
ever, I am entitled to my seat and I
hereby make demand that I be seated."
"What is your pleasure, gentlemen,
regarding Mr. Murphy's demand?" in
quired Chairman Fuller.
Mr. Shotton said: "At the last meet
ing, a resolution introduced by me, was
adopted declaring that it was the senso
of tho mooting that this board' was an
appointive board, and that until court
decides differently I feel in duty bound
to act as if this was an appointive
board."
"You do not contend, do you," queri
ed Mr. Muiphy, "that it is appointive
in all cases. Remember I am only ask
ing that I myself shall be seated. I am
not seeking to have a whole new elec
tion board installed. Judge Edwards
declared somo yeais ago that this board
was elective, the supreme court afnrm
ed that finding, and Judge Edwards
yesterday, reiterated it.
"But," said Mr. Shotton, "the court
directs that you institute quo warranto
proceedings to test the validity of your
election."
"No," retorted Mr. Murphy, "that is
not what the court said. What It did
say was that the parties should settle
the matter by future legal proceedings.
A quo warranto must be directed
agalnts some one claiming title to
something. It is ngainst mo the quo
warranto should be directed. If any
member or this board will show me
any one having title to my seat, I will
surrender."
DEMAND AVAS REFUSED.
There was a pause of somo moments
in the discussion and then Mr. Shotton
moved that Mr. Murphy's demand be
refused. The motion wns adopted
without dissent.
Mr. Murphy formally repeated the
demand as attorney for Mr. Hundley
and tho same action was taken by the
board. Mr. Murphy nnd Mr. Hnndley
withdrew and the board soon after
wards adjourned. Mr. Evans sat
through tho proceedings without mak
ing any move. Mr. Murphy proposes
to go Into court, now, and test the
legality of Mr. Dickert occupying tho
South ward scat.
Tho routine buslnes ot the board de
veloped llttlo of general interest. The
easo of Herman Klauss, a man employ
ed by Contractor Stlpp, on Colonel
Watrcs new holne, who had his eyes
blown out by the explosion ot a stick
of dynnmlte was presented by a neigh
bor for tho board's consideration. Col
onel AVattes and Mr. Stlpp paid off a
mortgage on Klauss' homo and sub
scribed n fund for his education at n
Philadelphia. Institution for tho blind.
Tho boaid hi usked to tnko euro of his
wife and four small chlldien. The
motion was tefened to Mr, Burko with
power to net.
